TO THE TEACHER

It is hard to say goodbye to a good teacher like you,
I hope all my other teachers will help pull me through
All the struggles I’ll have to face every day in real school,
As I try so hard to be good and live every school rule.

Thank-you for teaching me many things every day,
And caring, so it was easy when mom went away,
Now I’m prepared by your kind loving hand,
On my own two legs firmly and surely stand.

I’ll miss all the things we did in your class
Oh, how very quickly the time did pass,
I hope I remember all the lessons you gave
And try to carry on always being brave.

I hope I remember you all my life through,
And tell my children of things we used to do,
Thank-you again dear teacher and friend,
I’ll look for you when my school days end.
